In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses, etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections(注射) so that they won't carry diseases. There are many special animal food stores, though people can get animal food in almost every kind of store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people's houses, they will be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcome to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to be hurt by a car, people would be very sad about it. People in Canada have many reasons to like animals.

San Francisco is a spectacular city. It is famous for its steep hills, its earthquakes and the prison island of Alcatraz, but its most famous landmark is the Golden Gate Bridge. This is one of the most beautiful bridges in the world. It has a simple, graceful shape, and is painted in an attractive orange. Work on the Golden Gate Bridge started in 1933 and continued for the next four years. The total cost of the bridge was US$35 million. At that time, its span of 1,200 meters made the Golden Gate Bridge the longest suspension(悬浮) bridge in the world. The bridge is 2.7 kilometers long and, at the middle point, 70 meters above the water of San Francisco Bay. The main cables that hold the bridge are one meter in diameter. The bridge can safely withstand(抵挡) winds of up to 160 kilometers an hour, and it can sway(摇摆) as much as 8 meters in strong winds. On Thursday, May 27, 1937, 200,000 people walked across the bridge to mark its opening. People are still allowed to walk across: it takes about half an hour each way. It is worth the effort. As you cross, you understand the engineering skill that went into the construction of the bridge. You also get wonderful views of San Francisco and the Bay Area. The Golden Gate Bridge has been the scene of many events since it was completed. It was shaken by the earthquake of 1989. Daredevil(喜欢冒险的) pilots have flown their planes under it. Sadly, too, some people have taken their own lives by jumping from the bridge. But throughout its history, the Golden Gate Bridge has been the symbol of San Francisco, like the Temple of Heaven symbolizes Beijing and the Eiffel Tower symbolizes Paris |

A lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and often feel that there have been no accomplishments (成就) in their lives. In my first year of college especially, I saw people get themselves down too quickly. There were two students in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. When they disappeared for good(长久地), no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after that first test. I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say: "You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have brought yourself here to college. Breathe. Hope. Act." Such people should not use self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should start taking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying. |
1. The phrase "get themselves down" (Para. 1) probably means ______. |
A. tell lies B. lose confidence C. avoid dangers D. waste time |
